Nine members of Ames Noon Kiwanis were honored recently as recipients of the Kiwanis Zeller Award. The Zeller award recognizes Kiwanians who contribute at least $1,250 to the Kiwanis International ELIMINATE Project, a program that seeks to eliminate MNT (maternal/neonatal tetanus disease). Kiwanis funds provide support for the lifesaving three vaccinations that protect both mother and child. Kiwanis International is partnering with UNICEF to raise $110 million over a five-year period ending in 2015. Ames Noon Kiwanis has a five-year goal of $25,000 and the club is beyond 50 percent of the goal. Zeller recipients are, back row from left, Bill Bossenberger and Bob Currie; middle row, Steve Sapp, Roger Lawrence, Wally Schloerke and Jack Cleasby; and front row, Lynell Dougherty, Tom McGee and Gary Wade, local project coordinator.
